New manager thread

If we hire Martinez or Rodgers we might as well pack up and go home.

Klopp with van gaal as DoF

[Darkon]

I would love for us to get Klopp, he seems to be a great man manager. Find it unlikely he wants to leave the side he just won the second german championship with.

Rudi Garcia have done a very good job getting talents through at Lille as well as winning a championship with a small club. The big question is if there is enough patience around this club currently to employ someone for the longer run. Seems unlikely if we couldn't afford our former manager more time than he got.

Same with AVB really, could do a good job, but doubt the patience will be here from the fans. And many more younger exciting managers can enter that category.

That really get's me to the only option viable right now, and that is to get a high profile manager with a good track record, and one that by his name alone can attract some good players. There are just very few available on the market right now. One interesting manager could be Ottmar Hitzfeld that would not be impossible to lure from Switzerland and have won the CL twice and numerous other titles.-

What’s the general consensus regarding a Dof? Never really worked in the prem has it?

Has it really been used enough in the prem to judge? Works everywhere else, so no reason to think it wouldn't in prem.

Martinez:

127 games with Wigan, won 34. 26.77 win percentage.

And this is the man that could become our new manager? Christ on a bike.

In fairness look at Rafa's record prior to his appointment at Valencia.

I suppose you're right, but you've got to ask yourself if United, Arsenal, City, and Chelsea with all their managers can be successful without one, why do we need one?

I don't get the clamour from some of fans to get one. Sme seem to even think we need one to run the club. I'm still on the fence about them. I could never work out what Comolli did.

You could look it at with Barca, Bayern and Real the other way round though.

[Fredo]

We'd need one because the owners don't know much about football.
